Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a number of contacts received in the insulative housing. The contact includes a first body and a second body extending from the first body. A first protrusion portion is formed by drawing the first body and a second protrusion portion is formed by stamping the second body. The first projecting portion and the second projecting are insert molded in the contact, therefore the contact has a larger intensity.

Abstract: A socket connector having a plurality of connectors, and at least one corresponding plug connector inserts into the socket connector. The socket connector includes a shielding housing having a plurality of sidewalls that define at least one receiving slot, and a body provided with the plurality of connectors and a plurality of conductive contacts assembled to each of the plurality of connectors. The plurality of connectors are different types of I/O connectors arranged in a side-by-side manner. The shielding housing encloses a plurality of walls of the body so that the plurality of connectors are located within the at least one receiving slot. The plug connector includes a plurality of contact receptacles, which correspond to the plurality of different types of connectors, which are arranged in a side-by-side manner.

Abstract: A hydraulic brake lever generally includes a brake lever base, a handle hinged to the brake lever base, an oil reservoir and a half cover. The brake lever base may include a connecting portion and a main portion. A top of the connecting portion may be cooperable with the half cover to mount the hydraulic brake lever to a handlebar. The main portion may include a brake lever cylinder. The brake lever cylinder may include a return spring biasing a piston in the brake lever cylinder. The piston may have an outer end hinged with a push rod and another end hinged with the handle. The oil reservoir may be disposed in one side of the connecting portion adjacent the handle, and fluidly coupled to the brake lever cylinder. The position of the oil reservoir may be higher than the position of the brake lever cylinder.

Abstract: A fine adjusting structure for bicycle disc-brake system is disclosed. The disc-brake system comprises a securing seat mounted on to the fork of the bicycle frame and the securing seat being locked with a braking main body having a driving arm, the wheel of the bicycle being mounted with brake disc for the gripping of the braking main body, characterized in that the top and bottom end of the securing seat are respectively protruded out a locking section toward the braking main body and the securing seat is substantially a “C” shaped structure, the top and bottom of the locking section are formed into elongated hole which passes through from top to bottom, the long axis of the elongated hole is extended in the same direction of the wheel axle; and the top and bottom edge of the braking main body are respectively formed into screw holes corresponding to the elongated hole of the locking section of the securing seat.

Abstract: Protein-based, edible chewable pet toys, such as artificial dog bones, and methods of preparing such chewable pet toys are disclosed. The chewable pet toys are made from protein-based thermoplastic composition containing plant and animal derived proteinic material and various additive and nutrient ingredients. Chewable pet toys within the scope of the present invention possess properties of conventional artificial dog bones made of synthetic polymer, such as good strength and hardness, but they are biodegradable and edible. In addition, the chewable pet toys contain vitamins, minerals, flavorings, oral hygiene additives and other ingredients to help keep teeth and bones strong and to promote the growth and health of the pet.

Abstract: A notebook computer CMOS firmware processing method and the related hardware for saving power consumption by means of the application of the internal functions of CMOS and the processing of CMOS firmware permitting keyboard to enter idle mode or power down mode when CPU is temporarily stopped from execution, or to wake up when any key is pressed or any command is sent from the system to the keyboard.
